Undoubtedly there is a dancer asleep on me and his image seduces me every moment and I need to re-paint it.

In my youth I studied classical dance and I was part of the chorus of the Colon Theatre. I started my studies at 18 being that all the dancers begin around 5. I challenge myself the impossible and realize then, that it was not my call but the learning that nothing is impossible in life.

I breakfast every day in front of a wall of my dining room and it seemed to me a good idea to remember every morning the love I feel for myself and for others. I made this picture with the aim of beholding every morning and remember what´s my life mission is: LOVE

In this painting I show myself working as a coach. We have a stormy background made by plaster representing the problems and breakdowns that bring my clients and I am focused questioning his judgment and his gaze. Crushed mirrors symbolize my own personal process that is mirrored in my way of doing Coaching.

I am working with a photo of myself when I was 18 years old. I remember that it belongs to an unforgettable day of my life. Only this photo left of that day. That’s why I wanted to immortalize it in this painting. In the background we can see my favorite palette: some colors of the rainbow. I do not mix. This is my way to show my personality: front and direct.
When I was painting the hair I felt owned by the painting who asked to put red and blue like the American flag. As my name is Patricia my acquaintances sometimes called me.
Pato (duck). I think that since I came to USA I am no longer a duck but a swan. This is why I painted white feathers which represent the stars of the flag. In this country I continue developing my potential as a coach and as an artist.
Something interesting about this chart is to see that I add to my signature a swan feather.

I am looking for a signature that defines my identity in art. I want to paint it. The true picture can be seen in the background where you can see my struggle to find that identity in the color palette I use. The importance of this work is it represents the small and the big picture at the same time. From afar you can only see my signature and the date I finished it, but closer you can see the infinite paths traveled in search of my uniqueness.

I wanted to show in this work the importance of the here and now. Everything that happens occurs in this moment. Past, represented by the bottom of the painting, has little presence and the future, the top, keep our dreams. As you see almost everything is on the line that represents the present.

I wanted to reflect in this work my view of facing obstacles or problems that life presents me. Although we feel that everything is over, we can realize the solution is to take another blank canvas and start with our own music, being ourselves, retaining the essence. So this work is divided in two.
We can finish our mission in the world if we dare ourselves to start over.

Again the pictures of my family wanted to participate in my work. It is as if I wanted to let them go but an unstoppable force is looking for me and I go back using the photos as protagonists in my work.

Here I want to show myself through time with my loved ones.

In the first line I am with my grandparents.In the second with my parents.In the third and fourth with my children.

I worship, again, my family.In the first picture I am with my grandmother and my three sisters when we were children.In the second my parents in my wedding day.The third is the last picture I have with my parents of myself.In the fourth picture are my four sisters at the present moment.In the fifth my mother with all her grandchildren.And in the sixth with some of his great grandchildren.A journey from my grandmother to her great great grandchildren.

In this work starts showing my photographic bias. Here I present myself in many facets of my life.
Different bodies and emotions to say: Do not think I’m just like this person you can see. I can transform myself in the way I needed to be to achieve my goals

In this work I connect with my fundamental value: the family.
I believe that the home you see in this work is the sacred refuge of the unconditional love of its members. The light emitted by the sun bathes the whole work beyond the momentary disagreements, represented by the metal chips, which could have its members

This picture asked to be painted by itself. While it began as an exercise with plaster to be painted in a single color. Once it was completed it demanded the white color and then the red. At the end I felt that one of my emotional wounds wanted to transcend and be manifested in my painting.
When I realized that, I could not look it anymore. I felt I needed to connect with it to heal it.
I put the painting in a prominent place in my house. And until I recognized the white part was much bigger than the red I couldn’t stopped looking at it.

In the same way we don’t know, in the Coaching Process, where we are leaded and we can only speak about when it begins but not when it ends. I decide to go through different styles to find myself in my paintings.

In this work begins to be envisioned my sculptural birthplace because I start working with plaster to lift the piece and mold it to my way. I also start using nontraditional resources as a rule, in this case, to paint the borders.
Everything comes together at a time: Here and now.

As I work like a Coach I want to show the transformation that occurs through the coaching process.
We know that it begins and never ends as long as people go through different levels of transformation.
Sometimes it becomes simple and others are complicated, but always flowing.
Although occasionally the gloom could emerge, the light of creation and constantly learning will appear.
I suggest to hang it in a diamond shape because I believe that transformation often puts our believes upside down.

In this painting I open a space in the canvas to create emptiness. The Principle of Emptiness postulates that every empty space tends to fill itself and if you want something show up in the physical world you need to create a space which can be filled with it.
What I would like to manifest from this piece is a dream that is pending for me.
